CLASSIC EGGNOG



Classic Eggnog image

Aaron Goldfarb, a liquor writer who was raised Jewish, was not introduced to the joys of eggnog until he married a woman who loved Christmas. Making a batch of homemade eggnog became his self-designated duty at their annual Christmas party in Park Slope, Brooklyn. For the spirits, Mr. Goldfarb prefers Maker's Mark or another bourbon with a heavy wheat content, which lends sweetness. He also cautions against using spiced rum, as he feels the spirits involved already possess enough intrinsic baking-spice qualities. Mr. Goldfarb loves a slightly aged nog; see Tip for his advice.

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 large eggs
4 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
2/3 cup granulated sugar
4 ounces bourbon
4 ounces dark rum
4 ounces Cognac or apple brandy
Whole nutmeg, for garnish

Steps:

  • Separate the egg yolks from the whites. In a stand mixer, beat the whites on high speed until transformed into a meringue-like consistency with soft peaks.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the milk, cream, sugar, bourbon, rum and Cognac or brandy until a smooth texture is achieved. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until combined.
  • Transfer eggnog into a large serving bowl. Chill overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
  • To serve, ladle a few ounces into a mug or glass and grate fresh nutmeg over the surface. For ideal flavor, mix will keep in the refrigerator up to two weeks, but can last longer.
